Welcome to
this week’s edition of Wolexis Prediction. It has been a week of exciting
football, pure bants, Champions League and yes, Europa league campaign for some
of you.

This week we
caught up with Dr. Feel a.k.a Shegstein who is a passionate Chelsea fan to take
on our own ChukaMVP in our weekly predictions. Shegstein is not one to hide his
opinion and does not join the bandwagon when it comes to ideals or principles. Shegstein thinks this could be Chelsea’s time and has a strong belief in
Antonio Conte. With no further ado, here are the excerpts from out sitdown with
him.

Wolexis: Welcome to Wolexis. Thank you for
taking out the time to do this with us.

Shegstein:
It’s my pleasure

Wolexis:
A passionate Chelsea fan, I’m correct? What are your minimum
expectations for this season?

Shegstein:
Top four spot and a cup final will do for me. I’m not expecting too
much. The league is really competitive this year. Anything more will be a
bonus. But if there’s one man that can exceed expectations, it’s Antonio Conte.

Wolexis: Talking about Antonio Conte. You feel Chelsea
have their man now? The Chelsea job is one with high managerial turnovers?

Shegstein:
You never really know with Chelsea. I felt we had our man in Jose too.
That didn’t work out. But one can only hope for the best. Conte is very young
and full of life. He is in the Guardiola age group of coaches. He has some 20
odd years of coaching in him. One can only hope Chelsea make use of most of
those 20 and that it’s a successful relationship.

He already has some qualities Jose
lacked, especially faith in youth players, see for example, Pogba at Juventus,
and has the ability to control his emotions when talking to the press. Here’s
hoping the best is yet to come.

Wolexis: Okay, so yes. I’m going to ask, who is
in your top four this season.

Shegstein:
Man City, Chelsea, Man Utd, and Arsenal

Wolexis:
If you could sign one ex-Chelsea player, active or retired, who would
that be?

Shegstein:
I want to say prime Michael Essien but I’d go with prime Joe Cole, I
mean I could have gone with Arjen Robben but yeah. Imagine the possibility of
pairing Cole with Hazard on either wing. We have missed that double threat on
the wings for a long time.

Wolexis:
That’s greedy, you know! So how about someone you cannot wait to see him
hit the exit at the club?

Shegstein: Gary Cahill! Without a shadow of doubt. I think he has no more than two
seasons left at the club. Hopefully less. With the return of Kurt Zouma and the
emergence of Andreas Christensen who is going to have a first team spot next
season, I hope his exit is fast-tracked.

Wolexis: Chelsea’s take on Liverpool. That game is going to be a cracker. Conte
and Klopp. The fixture is kind of back in terms of anticipation. What do you
expect from the game, Klopp’s Liverpool, and what’s your scoreline prediction.

Shegstein: We have only lost 1 of our last 8 matches against Liverpool even though
that one was against Klopp’s Liverpool last season. It would be a high
intensity match for sure. Probably going to have some controversy- Costa I
mean. I think we would come out with a 2-1 win. Goals from Hazard, Costa, and
Coutinho.

Wolexis: Alright Shegstein, thanks for having to
do with us, before you leave, time to earn your points. You know how this
works, marks for each correctly predicted scoreline and outcomes are awarded. So
let’s have it!
